No leaks, I even didn't change the cam seals or V.cover gasket when I did the cams. I'm a cheap bastard.

But I will change them when I open it up and put the springs and retainers.

 

yeah, I feel guilty for driving the EVO less nowadays
few years back got a bimmer/beater for commute chores

 

good to know they last

I just installed the cams and cam gears at 46k and thought why not replace the seals while I'm at it. They did not leak but were far from being soft. So I did both cam/balancer and front/rear crankshaft seals Talk about overzealous preventive maintenance
did the belts too so I don't have to open it up again at 60k miles next year

 

that is awesome. I hope ot make my Evo to be my DD too. you are an inspiration sir

 

Your sig says '....and not running anymore'....putting in the turbo or did something go in the motor? What's the story...sorry...looked back a few pages and didn't see you post anything pertaining to this....

Thanks!

That sucks!! Sorry to hear about this!! Keep us posted as to your build/fix....good luck!!

 

wow man this is awesome i never heard of an evo with so many miles on it.. and sry to hear what happened lots of luck with car

 

I drive around 30,00 miles a year in my daily drive I guess it would be fun to drive the evo daily I don't think I could afford the gas and maintenances. My hat is off to you good job.

 

Yeah, I miss driving my car since it blew up. At least I found out all of my parts are in the shop when I get back from training here in Cali.

Yeah driving around in my friends Saturn SL1 just isn't the same.

I should have it back together by next weekend. Too bad I still don't have a damn FP turbo(it's been about 3 months now)

 

Ill second that, way to go!

 

tearin it up...fixxxx it

 

That is awesome, Gives me some hope these things will last.

 

You are an inspiration for keeping up on maintenance.

 

just a little tip, highway driving is better for the engine than stop and go. so get on the highway and go for an extended trip here and there.
